Episode 1: Our Climate and Deforestation

  • Summary

  • This first episode of Dear Forests will cover all that you need to know about deforestation, the 'basics' if you will. Together with Policy Officer Pieter Van de Type from BOS+, we will define deforestation, explore its impacts on our climate and our daily lives, discuss important geolocations, and get to know different actors in the fight against deforestation.

    BOS+ is an NGO dedicated to sustainable forestry, conservation and afforestation in Flanders and worldwide. A new name in the forest landscape, BOS+ is the integration of 2 existing NGOs: the Association for Forests in Flanders (VBV), which has been promoting forests in Flanders for more then 40 years, and Groenhart, since 10 years doing the same in a number of tropical countries. Their successful collaboration culminated in the creation of BOS+ in 2012. BOS means ‘forest’ in Dutch, and the '​+'​ in the name symbolises togetherness (collaboration), more forests and better forests.
